Autoimmune liver disease refers to a group of disorders in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the liver. This results in inflammation and damage to the liver cells, leading to various degrees of liver injury. There are several types of autoimmune liver disease, the most common types are:
- Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH): It is characterized by inflammation and destruction of liver cells, resulting in cirrhosis, jaundice, fatigue, abdominal pain and itchy skin.
- Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC): it is a chronic disease characterized by inflammation and damage of the small bile ducts within the liver. This results in the obstruction of bile flow and eventually leads to cirrhosis, jaundice and itching.
- Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC): It is characterized by inflammation and scarring of the bile ducts, both inside and outside the liver, leading to bile duct obstruction, which can result in cirrhosis, jaundice, and itching.
